1958 to 1960 body with spring hinge supports added (the bracket for the folding hood support is still there). It looks like it is in good condition. For a fiberglass Baja hood, those spring hood supports are too strong and will break the fiberglass. Better to cut and stretch them or use some other type of support.

The pictures of the front beam look like the beam tubes are bent. The pan head damage shows it has been hit in the left front. The pan is now fixed. The beam, if bent can be straightened using a hydraulic bottle jack and a length of chain. Fasten the chain to the ends of the beam tubes and put the jack against the front side of the bend, then use the jack to push the beam straight.

The left has a camber problem too. This may be just not having the right camber shim arrangement. But it may indicate bent trailing arms and/or spindle.
